Since Be is in the 2nd group, it should have 2 valence electrons and Cl should have 7 (in 7th group), and since there is 2 Cl, then there is 14. Add 14 Cl electrons and 2 Be electrons to get 16 electrons (valence, not total)
The Lewis structure of BeCl2 shows beryllium in the center with two chlorine atoms attached to it. Beryllium has 2 valence electrons and each chlorine has 7 valence electrons. The structure is linear with beryllium in the middle and a chlorine atom on each side.
Indium has 3 valence electrons.
8 valence electrons- 1s22s2p63s2p6
There are 3 valence electrons in an atom of aluminium.
There are no valence electrons.
Beryllium in BeCl2 doesn't follow the octet rule because it only has 4 valence electrons and can only form 2 bonds. Thus, BeCl2 adopts a linear structure with beryllium acting as a central atom bonded to two chlorine atoms. This arrangement allows BeCl2 to achieve a stable electron configuration without needing to fill its valence shell with 8 electrons.
The Lewis structure of BeCl2 shows beryllium in the center with two chlorine atoms attached to it. Beryllium has 2 valence electrons and each chlorine has 7 valence electrons. The structure is linear with beryllium in the middle and a chlorine atom on each side.
There are two bonding pairs in BeCl2. Beryllium (Be) has two valence electrons which it shares with two chlorine (Cl) atoms to form two bonds.
Indium has 3 valence electrons.
8 valence electrons- 1s22s2p63s2p6
Zinc has two valence electrons.
